Been a long time since I've read from this series which might be why this was a hard one to get into but about halfway through the book the pace did finally pick up and I found myself wanting to know the outcome.

Domestic abuse storyline was a tough one to stomach, but so is domestic abuse in general. Otherwise, repeated attempts on the doll heiresses life was more of a backstory to me on this one as I cared more about what was going on in Tammy's life than their clients. ( )

What’s not to like about Savannah Reid! A Southern gal, raised with good manners instilled in her by her loving grandma, she is always polite to her elders even while pointing her Beretta at the bad guys. In this tale, an elderly doll maker seems to be targeted for death. Reminding her so much of her own granny, Savannah is determined to save her new friend and find the monster with the motive, even if this person is part of the doll maker’s twisted family tree. When Savannah’s assistant becomes enmeshed in an abusive relationship, Savannah is incensed, and decides to bully the bully. With unexpected results, the surprise ending is sure to captivate fans of series. ( )
